db is a directory so that field is not the hard link reference count but rather
the number of direct children of the directory (an empty directory will always
have 2 because of the '.' and '..' entries).

Based on what you're saying I'd imagine that you're missing the db/revprops
directory in your repository.

The only fix would be to recover this data from a backup.
